.Sh NAME
.Nm nat.conf
.Nd network address translation configuration file for packet filtering
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The rules file for network address translation specify which addresses
are to be mapped and which are to be redirected.
.Pp
A
.Em nat
rule specifies that IP addresses are to be changed as the packet
traverses the given interface.
This technique of network address translation (NAT) allows a single
IP address on the translating host to support network traffic for a
larger range of machines on an inside network.
Although in theory any IP address can be used on the inside, it is strongly
recommended that one of the address ranges defined by RFC 1918 be used.
These netblocks are:
.Bd -literal
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (all of net 10, i.e., 10/8)
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (i.e, 172.16/12)
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 (i.e., 192.168/16)
.Ed
.Pp
An
.Em rdr
rule specifies an incoming connection to be redirected
to another host and optionally a different port.
.Sh GRAMMAR
Syntax for filter rules in BNF:
.Bd -literal
rule = nat_rule | binat_rule | rdr_rule
nat_rule = "nat" "on" [ "!" ] ifname [ protospec ] "from" ipspec
"to" ipspec "->" address
binat_rule = "binat" "on" ifname [ protospec ] "from" ipspec
"to" ipspec "->" address
rdr_rule = "rdr" "on" [ "!" ] ifname [ protospec ] "from" ipspec
"to" ipspec portspec "->" address portspec
protospec = "proto" ( number | "tcp" | "udp" | "icmp" )
ipspec = "any" | host
host = [ "!" ] address [ "/" mask-bits ]
portspec = "port" ( number | name )
.Ed
.Pp
Rules are processed in the order read, one rule per line.
Comments begin with the character `#'; empty lines are ignored.
.Pp
An
.Em ifname
is a network interface such as fxp4, ne0, or ep1.
An
.Em address
is an IP address.
If specified,
.Em mask-bits
refers to the number of bits in the netmask.
The negation character,
.Sq ! ,
may be used before an
.Em ifname
or an
.Em address .
The protocol specification is optional.
If it is omitted from a
.Em nat
rule, "tcp", "udp", and "icmp" connections will be translated.
If the protocol specification is omitted from an
.Em rdr
rule, only "tcp" connections will be redirected.
.Sh EXAMPLES
This example maps incoming requests on port 80 to port 8080, on
which Apache Tomcat is running (say Tomcat is not run as root,
therefore lacks permission to bind to port 80).
.Bd -literal
# map tomcat on 8080 to appear to be on 80
rdr on ne3 proto tcp from any to any port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 8080
.Ed
.Pp
In the example below, vlan12 is configured for the 192.168.168.1;
the machine translates all packets coming from 192.168.168.0/24 to 204.92.77.111
when they are going out any interface except vlan12.
This has the net effect of making traffic from the 192.168.168.0/24
network appear as though it is the Internet routeable address
204.92.77.111 to nodes behind any interface on the router except
the for the nodes on vlan12. (Thus, 192.168.168.1 can talk to the
192.168.168.0/24 nodes.)
.Bd -literal
nat on ! vlan12 from 192.168.168.0/24 to any -> 204.92.77.111
.Ed
.Pp
In the example below, fxp1 is the outside interface; the machine sits between a
fake internal 144.19.74.* network, and a routable external IP of 204.92.77.100:
.Bd -literal
nat on fxp1 from 144.19.74/24 to any -> 204.92.77.100
.Ed
.Pp
In the example below, fxp0 is the outside interface; a 1:1
bidirectional map is created between the private address 192.168.1.5
and the routable external address 204.92.77.113. (Thus, incoming
traffic to 204.92.77.113 is mapped to the internal address 192.168.1.5.)
.Bd -literal
binat on fxp0 from 192.168.1.5/32 to any -> 204.92.77.113
.Ed
.Pp
This longer example uses both a NAT and a redirection. Interface
kue0 is the outside interface, and its external address is 157.161.48.183.
Interface fxp0 is the inside interface, and we are running
.Xr ftp-proxy 8
listening for outbound ftp sessions captured to port 8081.
.Bd -literal
# NAT
# translate outgoing packets' source addresses (any protocol)
# in my case, any address but the gateway's external address is mapped
#
nat on kue0 from ! 157.161.48.183 to any -> 157.161.48.183
# RDR
# translate incoming packets' destination addresses
# as an example, redirect a TCP and UDP port to an internal machine
# NOTE: the lines below are split for readability
#
rdr on kue0 proto tcp from any to 157.161.48.183/32 port 8080 \e
-> 10.1.2.151 port 22
rdr on kue0 proto udp from any to 157.161.48.183/32 port 8080 \e
-> 10.1.2.151 port 53
# RDR
# translate outgoing ftp control connections to send them to localhost
# for proxying with ftp-proxy(8) running on port 8081
rdr on fxp0 proto tcp from any to any port 21 -> 127.0.0.1 port 8081
